July 9th 2015 - Rainbow fan

July 9th 2015 - Rainbow fan

I pinned an image ages ago about turning your plain white plastic fan into a Rainbow fan, however, there was no instructions on what to use to do it.  So I had to find another pin that did have some.

I did this no problem, and it said you could use sharpie pens!!!  Yay! I like my sharpies, so armed with sharpies and a screw driver I set off to attack the fan!  Blades all coloured in I put the cover back on and plugged it in.  What a fail and waste of time that was.  The sharpies were not bold enough colour to make the rainbow effect, you couldn't see any colour at all.

So I unplugged it, brought it downstairs, re-took the cover off and covered the blades in acrylic paint and re-built it.  I left it to dry.  I plugged it in and turned it on and nothing, the blades still look clear.  i'm really disapointed in this as thought and hoped it would work.
